How Brewmaster and Medusa perform as teammates in Dota 2 7.41e, from ranked matches.
In Dota 2 7.41e, Brewmaster and Medusa win 50.97% of ranked matches when playing on the same team, over 720 matches.
Picking these two cores together often means choosing between two different game plans. Brewmaster wants to create mid-game tempo, using Primal Split to scatter the enemy team and cause chaos. Medusa, however, needs her team to group up around her in the late game so she can land a decisive Stone Gaze. These two goals can work against each other. Brewmaster might separate a key target, but in doing so he pulls enemies out of position for Medusa's ultimate or Split Shot. While Brewmaster's tankiness can create space, his signature spell doesn't directly set Medusa up for success the way a hero with more conventional lockdown would. The result is often a pair of durable heroes fighting two separate fights.
